I was half asleep still but went outside and found the neighbours cat playing with a baby bird. We shooed the cat away and put the bird in a safe place in the corner of the yard until we could figure out what to do with it. The bird promptly flew into the composter which meant another more icky rescue. Bleah! "Robby" (a robin we think??) is currently residing in a tree in our backyard. (like the fake birds nest??) This is the third bird that Ridley has rescued this year. Shes also rescued countless bugs from our pool. We remove soggy yet still alive bugs almost daily..even bees! She hates bees but insists they be given a chance. She expects me to be the brawn in these rescue missions yet how could I say no when she pleads and beams her baby blues at me.
The worst part is explaining to her that we can only do so much for this bird. Whether or not it survives depends on nature more than anything. Fingers crossed here.
